At a glance
The Encrypt Pro M is a hybrid-kick stick with a collector colourway, while the HZRDUS Smoke is noticeably lighter at 360g with a much faster low-kick release for players who shoot quickly off the catch. The HZRDUS Smoke is also pricier despite sitting in the mid-range category, so neither stick is way more affordable than the other.
